On May 27, the UN News Centre headlined "UN rights chief urges end to 'intolerable' suffering
in Syria."

Navi Pillay addressed the 23rd Human Rights Council session. She stopped
short of pointing fingers the right way. She consistently blames Assad
for Western-backed death squad crimes.

"A humanitarian, political and social disaster is already upon
us," she said, "and what looms is truly a nightmare."

"Civilians bear the brunt of this crisis in which human rights
violations have reached horrific dimensions."

"Confronted with the flagrant disregard of international law
and human life on every side, I feel utter dismay."

"I am extremely concerned at current reports suggesting that
hundreds of civilians have been killed or injured, and thousands may
remain trapped, by indiscriminate shelling and aerial attacks by Government
forces in Al Qusayr."

She admitted that anti-government forces also commit human rights
violations. She consistently blames Assad most of all. She avoids explaining
Washington's war on Syria.

She's a reliable imperial tool. She's been so in previous capacities.
She suppresses truth. Responsible major powers are absolved.

Victims are blamed for their crimes. She did it before. She's doing
it now. She aids and abets lawless aggression. She facilitates human
rights abuses in the process.

On May 27, the Human Rights Council (HRC) convened its 23rd session. President Remigiusz Henczel addressed
a days earlier request to debate deteriorating conditions in Syria.

Qatar claimed Syrian forces were massacring their people. A May 16 Financial Times report headlined "Qatar bankrolls Syrian
revolt with cash and arms."

"(I)t "spent as much as $3bn over the past two years supporting
the rebellion in Syria, far exceeding any other government, but is now
being nudged aside by Saudi Arabia as the prime source of arms to rebels."

UK Foreign Secretary William Hague called ending the so-called arms
embargo the right decision. He led efforts to do so. He suggested Britain
would go it alone otherwise.

He claimed ending the embargo "is part of supporting the diplomatic
work to bring about the political solution." It's "necessary
and right," he said.

Doing so will "protect civilians," he added. Tory MP John
Baron disagreed, saying:

"It beggars belief, the idea that pouring more arms into this
conflict could not or would not escalate the violence. Of course, its
not going to do that."

"But it could do something more dangerous. That is it could escalate
the conflict beyond Syria's borders. That is why it could be a mistake
of historic proportions."

Oxfam's Anna Macdonald said supplying more weapons "add(s) fuel
to the fire. We are concerned that supplying arms to the opposition
won't level the playing field. In fact, it will fuel a deadly arms race
that will have even worse consequences for civilians."

"The millions of people suffering in Syria right now don't need
more arms. They need aid."

Britain, France, Germany and other EU nations partner in its imperial
wars. Doing so ravages one country after another.

Last October, Nobel Committee members awarded EU nations their Peace
Prize. They claimed doing so reflected their decades long contribution
"to the advancement of peace and reconciliation, democracy and
human rights in Europe."

They ignored their role in Eurasian conflicts and beyond. They turned
a blind eye to NATO's global ambitions. It's part of Washington's full
spectrum dominance agenda.

It's potentially catastrophic if not stopped. It assures greater wars
on humanity. Global war is possible. Washington controls NATO policy.
Its so-called Partnership for Peace is a thinly veiled pro-war agenda.

War is peace reflects longstanding US policy. Syria's conflict potentially
could spin out of control. The entire region and beyond could become
embroiled.
